Question
hello ,quick question,can i put mainganos,eureka red peacocks,and golden mbunas in one 100gal,i have lots of hiding places and visiualbarriers, i realize cichlids are unpredictable,some species seem to tolerate each other better ,thanks Jeff

Answer
Hi Jeff,
  That seems possible, though there are no guarantees with cichlids.  I would only put in a
single male of each of the species, along with four or five females.
